That’s crazy. You never can tell the absolute bat shit insanity of the people around you and what they might be capable of.

The odds of a killer living in your hometown is insane.

I agree with Smark. Stay safe out there folks.

I saw Punk was at the No Kings Protest in Chicago it's really cool to see us as a people coming together when shit is not right in the World. I know my Dad was there here in Wilmington because he's worked with Governor Meyer and I feel some feel some type of way about it. Helping people starts at home Dad but I wish I could of been there today protesting.

Zero Hedge are have good coverage on what's going on at the moment - I still think another USS Liberty is on the cards but we will see

I guess no one on here knows about it but there was a Deagel population prediction for the West years ago that said how the population of the UK in 2025 would go down to 16 million (similar drop for the US and others) I saved the screenshot on my phone but everyone wondered why....I guess we are about to find out

Supposedly it's one of them positions that's nonpartisan. Governor before Walz gave him the job, Walz just kept him

One thing I find shocking is that Iran was so unprepared. It's always a trope that there's warnings before attacks and that generates all the conspiracy theory, and almost always if you really look at the context, you can empathize with the people that didn't listen. But when America pulled their people from the region and Trump basically said he gave up telling Israel not to bomb them, how was that not obvious what was happening?

A man accused of assassinating a Minnesota state lawmaker and shooting another will face federal murder charges, which could allow for the death penalty, federal officials announced Monday.

The state is also expected to charge the suspect, Vance Boelter, 57, with first-degree murder, which would require a grand jury indictment and carry a mandatory sentence of life without the possibility of parole, Mary Moriarty, the Hennepin County Attorney, said at a news conference in downtown Minneapolis.

Ms. Moriarity said that it was a “frightening time we are living in,” where “political violence is prevalent.” She added, “We cannot continue on this way.”

Mr. Boelter was captured late Sunday in the largest manhunt in Minnesota’s history, after SWAT teams used drones to track him crawling through thick shrubs in a rural area southwest of Minneapolis.

Federal charges means Trump can pardon him.
